The effect of native α-fetoprotein (AFP) on the expression of T-regulatory lymphocyte (Treg) markers by activated CD4 lymphocytes with different proliferative status was studied. α-Fetoprotein did not affect the ratio of proliferating and non-prolife...
A sensitive immunoassay method based on microchip electrophoresis chemiluminescence (MCE-CL) detection technology was developed for the detection of tumor marker alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). This method adopts the non-competitive immunoassay mode, and wa...

A 70-year-old man underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)for 2 early-stage gastric cancers in 2009 and 2014, respectively. Both were pathologically diagnosed after curative resection. In 2015, we detected swollen lymph nodes in the lesser cur...
We have developed a sensitive photonic crystal fiber (PCF)-based immunosensor for detection of alpha fetoprotein (AFP). The unique PCF possesses a morphology characterized by numerous pore structures and a large surface area-to-volume ratio, which ca...
We evaluated the influence of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -C936T polymorphism on prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cirrhosis, and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Serum VEGF and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels were deter...
A 51-year-old male patient with chronic hepatitis B was referred to our hospital due to a 1-cm liver nodule on ultrasonography. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was slightly elevated. The nodule showed prolonged enhancement on dynamic liver magnetic resonance...
BACKGROUND: Preoperative prediction of microvascular invasion (MVI) is critical for treatment strategy making in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to develop a deep learning (DL) model based on preoperative dynamic contrast-enhan...
UNLABELLED: Hepatic hemangioma (HH) and hepatoblastoma (HBL) are common pediatric liver tumors and present with similar clinical manifestations with limited distinguishing value of serum AFP in early infancy. An accurate differentiation diagnostic to...
